Karina Lombard

Karina Lombard stars as Alana in the third season of the USA Network original series THE 4400.

Lombard has made a career out of portraying sexy, strong and exotic women. Born in Tahiti to a Lakota Medicine Woman and a Swiss-Russian-Italian aristocrat, Lombard was raised in Spain and attended schools throughout Europe where she became fluent in Spanish, English, Italian, French and German explaining the unique and sultry accent that has enraptured audiences for over a decade.

At a young age Lombard relocated to New York City where she began modeling, dancing and acting. Her numerous films include "Legends of the Fall" opposite Brad Pitt and "The Firm" with Tom Cruise, "Wide Sargasso Sea" and "The Doors."

In 2004, Lombard broke barriers with her portrayal of Marina in Showtime's controversial series "The L Word." Lombard received high critical acclaim for her performance in the series as the seductive, manipulative lesbian and now even after the death of the character, Showtime is still bombarded with fan mail and requests for the revival of Lombard's infamous character.

Lombard's stage work includes "Uncle Vanya," "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof," "Summer and Smoke," "M. Butterfly," "Joan of Arc," "Betrayal" and "Danny and the Deep Blue Sea."

In addition to her acting talents, Lombard has proved to be an accomplished musician, singer and writer and is working on her debut album as well as a music project with the world renowned Cirque du Soleil.
